Gets on plane nice and smooth. It's the roost you have to worry about. :D

I'll worry about that IF I get up. LOL
Maybe I can just stay between the two roosts. :D

This may be of interest to you water ski fans -- Bob Maher, Maherajah Water Skis will be an exhibitor at the 2015, Lake Havasu Boat Show, April 10-12 with a full display of products. For those of you who know Bob, this will be a great opportunity to come by, say hi, and check out some of the coolest wood water skis on the planet. If you don't know Bob, he is a legend in the sport, a real innovator of ski products and helped many world champion achieve titles and set records in slalom since the 1960s. The Havasu Boat Show is at Windsor 4, starts on Friday , April 10 at noon. If you've been to this show recently, you know how large it has grown -- and this year it's even larger. Details at http://www.lakehavasuboatshow.com

Nice collection!

I know who to track down if I ever want to borrow a ski! :D

Once I get the Schiaward finished up and actually out on the water, I will start the search to purchase one of my own.

For now, the yard-sale double-boot slalom ski suits me just fine! :D

Yah. I actually bought this ski from him.

I saw the wrap he did on Justins long board and was really impressed. Hence the wrap on my 360. With the new bindings and wrap it's gonna look really nice.

Yah. I was going to have him wrap my longboard when I'm done dinging it. Lol

I used to ski on the delta every summer, and then take a week at Mike Syderhounds(sp) . Great times.
